Additional information
Speedwell is one of the oldest cemeteries on the eastern side of Washington County. It lies near the corner of Buncombe Hill Road and Cherokee Road intersection.
An early deed refers to the Speedwell cemetery as the “John Longmire family graveyard”. Longmire lived there during the 1820’s and 1830’s and members of his family are buried here with simple field stone markers.
After Hunter School was built at the corner of Cherokee and Bill Bennett Roads, members of the Union Church of Christ met in the schoolhouse. Many members were buried here in the Longmire cemetery.
Cherokee Baptist Church records of 1838 state that some of their members met with Absalom Scott in the Hunter School to discuss his leaving their church. When Scott refused to return to the Baptist Church, he was expelled. He was a charter member of Union, which was founded in 1835.
When the first log building of the Speedwell Methodist Church was built in 1855, members of that congregation were buried at the Longmire Cemetery and the site became known as Speedwell Cemetery. Worley Mack Walters who owned the land around the cemetery donated land to enlarge the cemetery. He inherited the farm from his father, William Washington Walters.
